Best Essential Oils for Healing

Therapeutic Grade essential oils can Target the concern and help to begin the
healing process.

For optimal results, buy a Quality 'therapeutic grade' essential oil, and take the time to review the
recommendations for the type of oil you are considering.

Some oils are
applied directly to a spot where you are experiencing problems, a
certain number of times a day.

Others can be consumed in food or
beverage (although not FDA approved!)

Many
others can be inhaled deeply, diffused in a diffuser, put in a
vaporizer, in a bath, used as a compress, and they are great mixed with a carrier oil for massage!

A Few Top Essential Oils for Healing

Essential
oils have been used for healing since the beginning of time. They are
actually part of mankind's first medicine, our plants! They are quite
safe, with few exceptions.

I have used therapeutic grade essential oils
for many, many years and, from the very beginning, have seen myriad
changes in not only myself, but those I have shared them with.

There
are so many ‘top’ essential oils that it is hard for me to narrow them
down. I will continue to write and share stories about as many as I can!

I have also used a few different brands, all Therapeutic Grade, and I will have a link to the ones that I think give you the best quality for the best price!

Lavender Essential Oil

Lavender
oil is one of the most versatile essential oils that there is!

You can Always use lavender as a First Resort for Any Ailment!

Lavender is perhaps best known for its
ability to help you relax, and a few drops on the bottom of your feet at
night will help you to sleep better.

When applied to a cut or an insect
bite or sting, it’s antiseptic qualities will help to reduce the
irritation and cut down on the amount of time it takes to heal.

I have
used ﻿﻿﻿lavender essential oil﻿﻿﻿ numerous times on burns, it soothes the pain instantly
and cuts way down on the scarring. Lavender is one oil that you should always have on hand!

Peppermint Essential Oil

Yes,
the oil that is in your favorite Christmas candy does have a medicinal
purpose too.

Peppermint is one of the best essential oils that can help you to ward off an upset stomach, combat motion
sickness and even fight a fever. Internally, it can be taken with hot
water as a tea, and help to reduce indigestion, bowel problems, and even
reduce gas.

A drop of peppermint essential oil in a cold glass of water
in the summer is very refreshing. A glass of water a day with
peppermint oil will not only contribute to general health, but cut down
on intestinal distress, strengthen your immune system, and can make a
healthy afternoon ‘pick me up’.

Inhaling peppermint deeply can help to combat congestion and bronchial infections.

There has also been research
done on the effects of peppermint essential oil on the brain’s ability
to recall facts and events, and studies have shown that it can increase
test grades in schools.

Eucalyptus Oil

If you are feeling
under the weather, consider adding a little eucalyptus essential oil
into some steaming water or a vaporizer. As it begins to enter the air,
it will begin to disinfect the area and help to cleanse the lungs and
respiratory system.

Eucalyptus essential oil has been used historically for asthma,
acne, diarrhea, inflammation, rheumatism, sore throats, ulcers and
viruses. It is a great antiviral and antibacterial remedy.

Tea Tree Oil

Tea
tree oil, also known as melaleuca, is largely known for its
anti-fungal, anti-bacterial, anti-viral, and anti-inflammatory
properties. It is a very powerful immune system stimulant, and helps
with fighting not only colds and sinusitis, but the flu virus.

It can be
placed on an area of the skin and help to cure many of the fungal
infections you may experience, such as warts. Tea tree essential oil is very
useful in combating dandruff, oily skin, and head lice.

(Please Note, tea tree oil Can be Toxic to pets!)

Clove Essential Oil

Clove
is another of the best essential oils that has a long history of healing, especially
in times of epidemics, plagues, influenza, intestinal parasites, and
even aids in childbirth.

You can place it on cuts, skin infections, bug
bites and other injuries to benefit from the antiseptic properties that
it has. Clove oil can also be used to help heal earaches, nasal
congestion and stomachaches.

This powerful healer has a numbing ability
that can also help to curb a toothache or mouth pain in just a matter of
seconds, and I have used it many times with many people for this alone.
Clove essential oil is safe enough for your entire family, and something to definitely
consider keeping in the home.

As you can see, natural
healing is possible with therapeutic grade essential oils. We will
continue to write about and explore the commonly used essential oils and
their many health benefits.
